The JamMan is capable of recording in different Time Signatures. A Time
Signature must be set up prior to recording in a memory location. Once
a phrase has been recorded, Time Signature cannot be changed. To set the
Time Signature, follow these steps:
1. Select a new memory location. (The LOOP LED and SINgLE LED will be
off.)
2. Press the
button. It will now be lit.
3. Press the
button. The DISPLaY will now show the number
4 indicating the default Time Signature of four beats per measure.
4. Use the SELECT knob to change the Time Signature. You can select from
two to 15 beats per measure. This means if you want to record in 5/4 time,
select 5. To record in 7/8 time, select 7, and so forth.
The STORE button will light when Time Signature is changed but you can
immediately begin recording without having to store this change first. The
LED will light red for the downbeat and then green for the
rest of the beats of the measure if a tempo has been set up.
When you press the
button while a recorded loop is
selected, the loop’s Time Signature appears in the DISPLaY, but it cannot be
changed.
